PUC Campinas / This work invites you to reflect and think Marian devotion today. With the goal of presenting the spirituality of the Pe. Chaminade, which rests in a marial Mystique, giving amarial Mystique, giving a better understanding of Marian devotion in times of secularization. In his time. Chaminade studied and deepened the role and mission of Mary in the mystery of Christ and the Church, in anticipation of the Ecumenical Council Vatican II. Proposes the devotion to Mary with prudence and caution, for him the devotion to Mary leads the faithful to a subsidiary relationship, which he called filial piety. He lived a deep experience of God, before the image of the Virgin of the pillar in Zaragoza, Spain, where he stayed for three years in exile, which was a time of troubles, challenges, but also a time of grace, a maturing in the faith. This experience led him to a new way of evangelizing to France, after the French Revolution, in the process of secularization. To reach the mystical elements of Marian made a general approach to the mystical concept of privileging the dimension of experience: the intimate union with God as content and goal of the experiment; their condition of immediate experience in mediating soul and trace which it leaves the presence of God and finally the love as the way and means of the association. Developed the concept of mystical, we treat the concept of Christian mysticism, where the central element is the Incarnation of Jesus Christ, Son of God become Son of Mary. The story of Fr. Chaminade and Marian spirituality, the finding of a Mystic Marial within the Marian spirituality. He presents Mary as the Virgin that embraces life, the mother who communicates the life and the Wife who lives an unconditional love, and may be called a Mystery icon, is carried in her womb the mystery of a God who became human, Jesus Christ. For the Pe. Chaminade devotion to Mary is to imitate her virtues to reach conformity with Christ, Maria is the Center, the whole devotion must lead the faithful to the center of the Christian faith, which is Jesus Christ. Concerned with the formation of the people, and as an educator in the faith and in Christian ways, proposing the method of virtues that can be a way: to self-knowledge, a path to love and a way to the service, that points to a human and integral growth of the person, with a community ethic of care, solidarity and compassion. To new times and new challenges new methods. New wine in new skins. / O presente trabalho convida a refletir e pensar a devo??o mariana hoje. Com o objetivo de apresentar a espiritualidade do Pe. Chaminade, que se apoia em uma m?stica marial, que busca conferir uma melhor compreens?o da devo??o mariana em tempos de seculariza??o. Em seu tempo Pe. Chaminade estudou e aprofundou o papel e miss?o de Maria no mist?rio de Cristo e da Igreja, antecipando ao Concilio Ecum?nico Vaticano II. Prop?e a devo??o a Maria com prud?ncia e cuidado. Para ele a devo??o a Maria leva o fiel a uma rela??o filial, que ele chamou de ?piedade filial?. Ele viveu uma experi?ncia profunda de Deus, diante da imagem da Virgem do Pilar em Zaragoza, Espanha, onde ficou por tr?s anos. Esta experi?ncia o levou a um novo jeito de evangelizar a Fran?a, p?s Revolu??o Francesa, em pleno processo de seculariza??o. Para chegar aos elementos da m?stica marial fizemos uma abordagem geral do conceito de m?stica privilegiando a dimens?o da experi?ncia: a uni?o ?ntima com Deus como conte?do e meta da experi?ncia; sua condi??o de experi?ncia imediata na media??o da alma e o rastro que nela deixa a presen?a de Deus e por ?ltimo o amor como caminho e meio da uni?o. Desenvolvido o conceito de m?stica, tratamos o conceito de m?stica crist?, onde o elemento central ? a Encarna??o de Jesus Cristo, Filho de Deus, feito Filho de Maria. A hist?ria do Pe. Chaminade e da espiritualidade mariana, a constata??o de uma M?stica Marial no seio da espiritualidade mariana. Pe. Chaminade apresenta Maria, como a Virgem, que acolhe a vida, a M?e que comunica a vida e a Esposa, que vive um amor incondicional, podendo ser chamada de ?cone do Mist?rio, pois carregou em seu ventre o mist?rio de um Deus que se fez humano, Jesus Cristo. Para o Pe. Chaminade a devo??o a Maria ? o imitar suas virtudes para chegar ? conformidade com Cristo. Para ele toda a devo??o deve conduzir o fiel ao centro da f? crist?, que ? Jesus Cristo. Preocupado com a forma??o das pessoas, e como educador na f? e nos costumes crist?o, prop?e o sistema de virtudes, um m?todo, que pode vir a ser um caminho: para o autoconhecimento, um caminho para o amor e um caminho para o servi?o, que aponta para um crescimento humano e integral da pessoa, com uma ?tica comunit?ria, do cuidado, da solidariedade e da compaix?o. Para novos tempos e novos desafios m?todos novos. Vinho novo em odres novos.

The Shrine of our Lady of Ephesus: A Study of the Personas of Mary as Lived Religion

Abraham, Heather 21 November 2008 (has links)
In Pure Lust, Mary Daly claims that the Virgin Mary is an “image of total subservience, the dethroned and sapped Goddess who was converted into a vessel.” Daly perceives Mary primarily through Christian scripture and other orthodox texts, ignoring her role as part of a religion lived and experienced outside of Church doctrine and dogma. This thesis explores how Mary is perceived and utilized by the laity, as opposed to the theological Mary, by specifically looking at how the Virgin Mary is imagined and experienced at the Our Lady of Ephesus Shrine in Western Turkey. Utilizing Robert Orsi’s lived religion approach and ethnographic research, this examination of the Virgin Mary will test Daly’s theologically based theory.

The 'gude regent?': a diplomatic perspective upon the Earl of Moray, Mary, Queen of Scots and the Scottish Regency, 1567-1570

Webb, Claire L. January 2008 (has links)
This thesis examines and re-evaluates the political career and reputation of James Stewart, Earl of Moray, who acted as Regent of Scotland for the young King James VI from 1567-1570, after the deposition of Mary, Queen of Scots. Drawing upon a rich and varied body of evidence located in both the English and Scottish archives of state papers, together with contemporary propaganda, memoirs and histories, this work constructs a much needed political narrative of the period, investigating the often highly complex politics which lay behind the outbreak and the initial stages of the Marian Civil War. It questions Maurice Lee's image of Moray as the 'gude regent', an image which was first present in Buchanan's History, and which depicts Moray as a highly successful regent, and an altruistic Protestant reformer. Dispelling Lee's view of Moray as a 'reluctant regent', it shows instead that the Earl was determined to gain, and then maintain, his position of power. It incorporates a discussion of the constitutionality of the actual regency itself, together with the theories of election which were drawn up to justify both it and the deposition of a monarch. In addition, the thesis sheds light upon the dynamics of Scottish political alignment during the period, emphasising the great fluidity which was to be found, and showing how issues of internal government, and attitudes towards England, affected men's allegiances as much as, if not more than, the ostensible issue of monarchy itself. This study also builds upon recent work by Tudor historians such as John Guy and Stephen Alford, and sets Moray's regency within an Anglo-Scottish context, demonstrating the importance of the interconnections between events in England, such as the Norfolk plot, and Scottish politics. It investigates the English attitudes towards Mary, and towards the two rival parties within Scotland, taking into account the sometimes conflicting objectives of Elizabeth I and her leading ministers, such as William Cecil, yet showing how they consistently sought to gain dominance over Scotland. Moray's regency was cut short by his assassination, and this thesis concludes by considering both his murder and its aftermath. It explores how his death impacted upon the political situation, together with the way in which his reputation was shaped in the immediate period after his death. Finally, it investigates the opportunity that both Moray's assassination and the Northern Rising of late 1569 had given England to intervene in Scottish affairs, and further pursue policies to that country's own advantage.

Landscape and identity : three artists/teachers in British Columbia

Beer, Ruth Sulamith 11 1900 (has links)
In this interdisciplinary study, narrative portraiture is used as a methodology to depict three visual artists who draw on their lived experience, traditions and values to engage viewers, through their artwork, about issues of landscape and identity. I argue for an educative paradigm applied to art practice that seeks individual and social/cultural transformation within and across communities through pedagogical processes that recognize diverse audiences. Questions guiding this study are: How do the artists' ideas and practices relate to living in British Columbia and the representation of the land? What are their motivations and strategies for expressing those ideas? How are the roles of these artists and the roles of teachers linked? The study considers the ways in which Jin-me Yoon, Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun and Marian Penner Bancroft foreground landscape in British Columbia as a complex phenomenon and as a powerful icon in Canadian culture. Through interviews and analysis of artwork, this study examines how these artist/pedagogues challenge artistic conventions, myths and historical narratives that have framed Western culture and influenced their experience. By employing and disrupting conventions of representations of the land, they construct new narratives concerned with issues of identity, the environment, Native land claims, and urban history. This research portrait of artists who attempt to inscribe a place for themselves and their communities within the life of the province, is also a portrait of 'place', or the complex interrelationship of people and the environment. As role models and spokespersons who link knowledge and culture, the artists share a desire'to foster understanding through postmodern art practices and dialogic pedagogical processes. This study acknowledges their dual role as artist and teacher, involving models of practice that aim to effect social change and environmental care. It examines how their work integrating art and education, reflects and attempts to shape the social, cultural and political landscape within shifting conditions of society today. This study aims to provide a greater understanding of artist/pedagogues and calls for an increased focus on a pedagogical role for artists in museums, schools and other community-based sites, particularly with respect to multicultural and environmental art education.

Vyobrazení zázraků na poutních místech doby barokní / Iconography of Miracles at the Pilgrim Places of the Baroque Period

Káčerek, Roman January 2018 (has links)
This diploma thesis deals mainly with iconography of miraculous events at selected places of pilgrimage on the background of their factual history and the overall tradition of certain Marian cults. The first part of the thesis is devoted to the analysis of deliberately chosen pilgrimage sites in all cases, with an emphasis on their initial and other specific miraculous events of non-biblical nature concerning primarily the lives of ordinary people. These analyzes provide a basic insight into the general-factographic history of the relevant sites, which is necessary for the detailed examination of the relevant miraculous events. Primary attention is devoted to the analysis of the original miracles of the pilgrimage sites, especially by their depictions. Within the scope of individual pilgrimage sites, this thesis also seeks to analyze all other pictures of the mercy of the Marian. Great emphasis is also placed on written entries of the mentioned miraculous events, which in most cases very probably preceded their picture delineation. The second part of the thesis tries to systemate the results of the researches and compare them with one another. It is a comparison of the miraculous images that are being discussed, which are done mainly in terms of content and in terms of their writing. It is a...

Aparições de Nossa Senhora: mensagens e peregrinações na contemporaneidade / Apparitions of Nossa Senhora: Messages and Pilgrimages in contemporary

Lilian Maria Pinto Sales 17 February 2009 (has links)
Realizamos neste trabalho uma análise das aparições de Nossa Senhora no Brasil, buscando compreender o processo social e simbólico que sustenta a formação de convicções coletivas em torno das aparições que sempre tem seu início em testemunhos pessoais sobre visões de Nossa Senhora. Para isso partimos do estudo de caso realizado nas aparições de Maria na cidade de Jacareí, interior de São Paulo. Demonstramos o processo de construção destas manifestações, em que fatores de diferente ordem se mostraram fundamentais. Entre eles destacamos: as relações e conexões estabelecidas entre os atores e grupos envolvidos inserindo a aparição numa rede de manifestações marianas -; a peregrinação entre elas; a centralidade do movimento católica Renovação Carismática na organização dos eventos, disseminação de idéias e práticas e na modelagem simbólica dos fenômenos -; o papel desempenhado pela Igreja Católica na produção de idéias e crenças que servem como fonte de legitimidade para as aparições -; a modelagem simbólica das aparições fundamental para a atribuição de legitimidade ao fenômeno -, e a presença de elementos simbólicos de longa duração. Cada um desses temas foi desenvolvido ao longo dos quatro capítulos que compõem essa tese. / The thesis analyses Our Ladys appearances in Brazil, trying to understand the social and symbolic process supporting the creation of collective beliefs about these appearances, a process that always start with personal witness about the appearances of Our Lady. In order to analyze that, we realize a case study in the city of Jacareí, São Paulo state. The thesis reveals the process in which these appearances occur, where different factors are fundamental. Among them we shall focus: 1) the relations and connections involving individuals and groups, inserting the apparitions in a net of Mary´s demonstrations, like pilgrimages; 2) the Catholic Church role in the production of ideas and beliefs which give legitimacy to the appearances; 3) the symbolic molding of theses appearances, which are fundamental to that legitimacy; 4) the presence of long terms symbolic elements. Each one of these topics was developed in a separate chapter.

Réforme catholique et sociétés urbaines en France : les congrégations mariales jésuites aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles / Catholic Reformation and urban societies in France : the Jesuit Marian congregations in the 17th and 18th centuries

Yamamoto, Taeko 22 June 2017 (has links)
Apparues en 1563, sous la forme d’associations d’élèves de collèges jésuites, les congrégations mariales se développent rapidement dans le contexte de la Réforme catholique, en s’étendant à l’ensemble des fidèles, encadrés selon leur âge et milieu social. Encouragées par la papauté, les autorités civiles et religieuses, comme « un rempart contre les hérétiques », ces congrégations restent liées entre elles du fait de leur agrégation à la congrégation, initiale, du Collège romain (Prima Primaria). Ses membres suivent les mêmes Règles communes, et ils bénéficient de ses indulgences. En se soumettant à divers exercices, et en s’obligeant à une vie spirituelle exemplaire, ils créent l’émulation dans leur entourage familial et professionnel. En France, les congrégations mariales s’implantent prioritairement dans les lieux destinés à l’éducation et sur les frontières entre catholiques et protestants, en premier lieu, pour former les futures élites chrétiennes et gagner les élites urbaines. Fondée, vers 1630, dans la maison professe des jésuites de Paris, la Congrégation des Messieurs rassemble les dévots des classes dirigeantes de la capitale. Parmi ceux-ci, on relève plusieurs grandes figures qui s’inscrivent, conjointement, dans d’autres cercles dévots, comme la Compagnie du Saint-Sacrement. Souvent, au sortir de leurs études dans les collèges jésuites, s’étant élevé socialement, ces dévots poursuivent leur vie congréganiste, en s’appuyant sur leur parenté et leurs relations, pour s’efforcer d’agir dans la cité vers une perfection chrétienne. Cette sociabilité, poursuivie de génération en génération, est d’autant plus précieuse dans les milieux de l’artisanat. Le réseau ainsi créé, qui apporte un secours tant spirituel que matériel, constitue également une structure d’accueil dans leur mobilité.Y aurait-il un déclin général des congrégations mariales au siècle des Lumières ? Le nombre de leurs créations diminue, dans un premier temps. Puis, ces associations se trouvent affectées par les querelles qui se développent entre jésuites et jansénistes, autour de la bulle Unigenitus. À Paris, par exemple, on constate surtout un recul du nombre des magistrats des cours souveraines, compensé par une augmentation du nombre des ecclésiastiques antijansénistes et philojésuites. Pourtant, cet apparent déclin est loin d’être unanime, selon les milieux sociaux et les régions. On constate, durant la seconde moitié du XVIIe siècle et jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle, une augmentation des effectifs des Congrégations des Artisans, et même la multiplication de ces congrégations dans la province jésuite de Lyon. Cette extension vers des catégories sociales plus modestes passe également par l’accueil de femmes. On pourrait s’étonner, aussi, d’y constater la vitalité des demandes des messes pour les morts. Le cas de la Congrégation des Artisans de Montpellier est exemplaire. Cette sodalité conserve, en effet, une réelle attractivité dans la vie associative et religieuse montpelliéraine, même après l’expulsion de la Société de Jésus, et elle maintient le réseau tissé avec les autres congrégations mariales affiliées à la Primaria. Les congrégations mariales ont donc évolué : elles ne se limitent plus à des cercles de dévots mais, en s’étendant à des catégories sociales plus modestes, elles forment désormais une communauté de « bons chrétiens ». Elles nous offrent, alors, un nouvel éclairage sur le comportement religieux des sociétés urbaines au siècle des Lumières. / The Marian congregations appeared in 1563, as association of Jesuit College students, and developed rapidly in the context of the Catholic Reformation, extending to all faithful, supervised according to their age and social backgrounds. Encouraged by the papacy, civil and religious authorities, as a "rampart against the heretics", these congregations remained interconnected because of their aggregation to the initial congregation of the Roman College (Prima Primaria). Its members followed the same Common Rules, and they benefited from its indulgences. By submitting to various exercises, and by committing themselves to an exemplary spiritual life, they created emulation in their family connections and professional relationships.In France, Marian congregations were firstly established in places for education and on the borders between Catholics and Protestants, their main purpose being to train the future Christian elites and to gain the urban elites. Founded around 1630 in the Jesuit professed house of Paris, the Congregation of Gentlemen (Messieurs), gathered the “dévots” of the ruling classes of the capital. Among these are several great figures which are jointly inscribed in other devout circles, such as the Company of the Holy Sacrament. Often, as a result of their studies in Jesuit colleges, having risen socially, these dévots pursued their congregation activity, relying on their kinship and their relations, to strive to act in the city towards a Christian perfection. This sociability pursued from generation to generation was all the more valuable among the artisans. The network thus created, which bring both spiritual and material assistance, was also a welcome structure in their mobility.Would there be a general decline of the Marian congregations in the Age of Enlightenment? Indeed, the number of newly created foundations decreased, at first. Then, these associations were affected by the conflict which had developed between Jesuits and Jansenists, around the bull Unigenitus. In Paris, for example, the number of sovereign courts magistrates, specifically, declined. This decrease was compensated by an increase in number of anti-Jansenist and philo-Jesuit clergy. However, this apparent decline is far from unanimous, depending on social categories and regions. Research shows, in the second half of the seventeenth century and up until the eighteenth century, an increase of the numbers of the Congregations of Artisans, and even the multiplication of these congregations in the Jesuit province of Lyon. This extension to more modest social categories also involves the reception of women. It is remarkable, too, to note the vitality of the demands of the masses for the dead. The case of the Congregation of the Artisans in Montpellier is exemplary. This sodality retained a real attractiveness in Montpellier's religious and associative life, even after the expulsion of the Society of Jesus, and it maintained the network with the other Marian congregations affiliated to the Primaria.Marian congregations have evolved: they are no longer confined to circles of dévots, but by extending to more modest social categories, they now form a community of "good Christians". They then give us a new insight into the religious behavior of urban societies during the Age of the Enlightenment.
